462482 divided by 42 
We're looking to find how many times 42 goes into 462482.

Going ahead to step 1:
42 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 4 leaves us with 4.
Take the next digit (6) from the dividend and append it to 4, then repeat: 46 / 42

On to step 2:
42 goes into 46 1 times with a remainder of 4.
The number 1 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 1.0
If we subtract 42 from 46, we get 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 42

Going ahead to step 3:
42 divided by 42 is 1 with a remainder of 0.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11.0
If we take 42 away from 42, we end up with 0.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 0 and repeat the process: 4 / 42

Let's proceed to step 4:
4 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 4.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 110.0
Subtract 0 from 4 to get 4.
Append the next digit (8) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 48 / 42

Advancing to step 5:
42 goes into 48 1 times with a remainder of 6.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 1101.0
If we subtract 42 from 48, we get 6.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 6 and continue with: 62 / 42

Going ahead to step 6:
When dividing 62 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 20.
Write down 1 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11011.0
Deduct 42 from 62 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 7:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11011.4
If we take 168 away from 200, we end up with 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 8:
320 divided by 42 is 7 with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11011.47
Subtract 294 from 320 to get 26.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 9:
42 goes into 260 6 times with a remainder of 8.
The number 6 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11011.476
The remainder is 8 after subtracting 252 from 260.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 80, and continue the process.

Step 10:
When dividing 80 by 42, we get 1 with a remainder of 38.
Put 1 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 11011.4761
If we take 42 away from 80, we end up with 38.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 380, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 11:
When dividing 380 by 42, we get 9 with a remainder of 2.
Use 9 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 11011.47619
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 378 from 380.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 20, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 12:
20 divided by 42 is 0 with a remainder of 20.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 11011.47619
Deduct 0 from 20 and we're left with 20.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 200, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
If we divide 200 by 42, we get 4 and a remainder of 32.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 11011.4761904
Subtract 168 from 200 to get 32.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 320, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 14:
42 goes into 320 7 times with a remainder of 26.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 11011.47619047
The remainder is 26 after subtracting 294 from 320.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 260, and continue the process.

In conclusion, the division gives 11011.47619047 with a balance of 2.6e-08.
